Venezuela’s act­ing Pres­i­dent Del­cy Ro­dríguez on Wednes­day vowed to con­tin­ue re­leas­ing pris­on­ers de­tained un­der for­mer Pres­i­dent Nicolás Maduro dur­ing her first press brief­ing since Maduro was oust­ed by the Unit­ed States ear­li­er this month.

Ad­dress­ing jour­nal­ists from a red car­pet at the pres­i­den­tial palace, Ro­dríguez struck a con­cil­ia­to­ry tone and said the Venezue­lan gov­ern­ment was en­ter­ing a “new po­lit­i­cal mo­ment.” She of­fered as­sur­ances that the process of re­leas­ing hun­dreds of de­tainees — a move re­port­ed­ly made at the be­hest of the Trump ad­min­is­tra­tion — “has not yet con­clud­ed.” The re­leas­es have drawn crit­i­cism for be­ing too slow and se­cre­tive.

“This op­por­tu­ni­ty is for Venezuela and for the peo­ple of Venezuela to be able to see re­flect­ed a new mo­ment where co­ex­is­tence, where liv­ing to­geth­er, where recog­ni­tion of the oth­er al­lows build­ing and erect­ing a new spir­i­tu­al­i­ty,” Ro­dríguez said in the ad­dress, which last­ed just over five min­utes. She took no ques­tions.
